Chapter 127
After Tanba's seniors tried to throw, at the signal of the referee, the first half of the first game officially began.
"First and second baseman, Shimomura-san."
Shimomura stood in the strike zone, shook it lightly a few times, and then clenched his bat and stared at Tanba senior tightly,
As the air defense siren sounded, Tamba senior threw the first ball,
"Bang!"
Shimomura leaned back, and he didn't stand firm, he took a few steps back, and glanced at Miyuki's gloves, which were indeed in the good ball area.
'It's so bent, is this the trump card of Qingdao?' This longitudinal curveball is a bit unpleasant. ’
Returned to the strike zone and stood up and posed. Miyuki glanced at the beater, Shimomura, and found that he was standing a little further back than before, and it was obviously the curveball just now that made him care very much.
'In that case, then the next ball is thrown here....'
Tanba senior nodded, and cast according to Miyuki's request,
"Bang!"
Because of the reason that Shimomura is far behind, he can't touch this straight ball in the outside corner at all, but he still subconsciously swings the bat, and the current number of balls has become zero bad and two good, chasing the hitter.
The outside corner kick was not played in the back, and there was a risk of being hit by the ball in the front, Shimomura silently evaluated it, and felt that the result of the touch ball was much better than the strikeout, so he did a psychological construction and silently moved back to the front.
Seeing Shimomura's small movements, Miyuki decided to give him another fierce medicine, and Tanba's senior threw a longitudinal curved ball at the hitter, and Shimomura once again subconsciously dodged,
"Bang!"
"Three good balls, the hitter is out."
"That's not going to work at all!"
Shimomura wailed and walked towards the rest area, passing by the second stick, his expression became serious,
"The longitudinal curve ball has changed a lot, it's much more powerful than yesterday's ball bowler, so be careful."
"Ahh
"Shimomura, you kid get over here, it's too embarrassing."
"Yes, yes, Overseer, I'm coming."
Paying attention to the rest area on the opposite side is also one of the responsibilities of the catcher, Miyuki saw the movement of the rest area of Mingdu High School, and frowned,
It was so relaxing, no tension at all. Hopefully they're just careless, and not left behind. ’
Miyuki retracted his gaze and focused on Taku Kubo, the second stick,
'Good body shape, good at playing straight balls, but changing the ball is also good, foot range and eyesight are the first in the team, unexpectedly not playing one but two bats, and the base stealing rate is also relatively high, Tanba seniors, such a person can't be put on the base. ’
With Chris's assistance, Tambo had memorized all the beaters last night, so he knew very well how dangerous this beater was.
"Bang!"
"Wow, no wonder Kyosuke said that the change is large, this change is too cheating, and if you vote accurately, few people can hit it." ’
Next, although Kubo Taku hit a straight ball mixed in, but it didn't play well, it was the front of third base, and Masuko's senior caught the bullet ball with his forehand steadily, and after changing hands, he passed directly to first base, blocking Kubo Takubo out of the game.
After solving two people in a row, Qingdao's support team also began to cheer loudly, and it was a very reassuring thing to hear his name coming from the audience in this strange city and unfamiliar stadium.
Tanba's senior mustered up his spirit and used a gorgeous longitudinal curved ball to triple strike the three-batter Yuto Asahina, opening up a very good situation for Seido in the next match.
"A stick guerrilla-san."
'It's worthy of being a team that can score five points from Narumiya Naruto, and the momentum of a batter should not be underestimated, standing on the left to play the seat? It seems that it is mainly based on the base, Haixiang should pay attention, even if the infield rolls the earth, this hitter may be on the base. ’
Kuramochi smiled maliciously and stared at the pitcher. Takano Haixiang nodded and confirmed the code, and the baseball flew in the opposite direction of Kuramochi, and the way to see the ball should be a low ball in the outside corner, on the one hand, to earn a good number of balls, and on the other hand, to prevent Kuramochi from being able to play this ball well.
But is this a problem for holdings? Kuramochi directly swung the bat and pulled this outside corner low to third base, although it didn't hit well, it was a weak rolling ball.
The third baseman, Taku Kubo, ran to the front, and when he received the ball, he found that Kuramochi had already run more than half of the way, and Taku Kubo threw the baseball out with all his might.
"Bang!"
First baseman Soma and Kuramochi looked at the referee at the same time, and the referee looked at the base bag, then at Soma's gloves, and then raised his hands flat.
“safe!”
"Hahaha....."
Kurachi's trademark laugh sounded on the first base, and Soma's expression darkened, silently raising the danger of Kurachi.
'The killing just now, Ah Tuo didn't delay, and obviously warned his inner field to roll the earth, how fast this kid is. ’
"Well done, Kurachi."
"Kurachi, you're very handsome."
"Oh~~, Cheetah of Qingdao, let's run on Koshien."
"No road, Sawamura, who is the cheetah!"
Kuramochi smiled and handed the equipment to the baserunner, and then did not forget to refute Rong Chun. It is worth mentioning that because today's game has been determined to be led by Tanba's seniors, Tsukitani followed the pitch, and Kawakami finished, so there is no need to go to the cowpen to volunteer as a runner at third base.
Seeing that Eijun was familiar with all kinds of guards and had good eyesight, Superintendent Kataoka agreed, but Kusunoki Senpai, who had always been a runner at third base, looked at Rongchun who had snatched his task with a worry.
Seido's scoring pioneer has already hit base, and the next time is to grab points, and Kuramochi relies on Meito High School's vigilance to constantly harass and provoke pitcher Takano's nerves.
Failed to contain again and again, Takano's anger slowly came up, and watching Kominato Ryosuke who was on fire, he quietly made a code, and Kuramochi pretended to be pinned down by the ball and got a lot closer to the first base.
Finding that Kuramochi was shortening the distance between him and the first base, catcher Yugo Takaoka gave a secret message to Takano and told him to focus on the batter duel.
Looking at Takano's posture, the moment Takano threw the ball, Kuramochi started instantly,
"I don't have to leave the base when I steal it~~'
"Steal the base!"
First baseman Soma warned loudly, but Takano, who was about to get rid of baseball, didn't have the flexibility of Eijun to change the way of the ball, and at this time, Ryosuke Kominato was also ready to strike,
'Hit and run?! ’
The catcher looked at Ryosuke Kominato, the second batter who was swinging a baseball in front of him and hitting Takano's two-seam straight ball.
Stealing the base and hitting and running, Kuramochi rushed to the third base bag in one go, and Ryosuke Kominato smiled and looked at the direction in which the ball was hit, and ran towards first base.
At this moment, the second baseman suddenly rushed out, intercepted the ball that should have bounced to the outfield, and passed to first base, and Ryosuke Kominato was unfortunately blocked out.
But even so, there are people in the point circle, and the next turn is the center of the green road. Looks vicious, but Izawaki, who has always had perfect marks in baseball etiquette, stood on the strike zone and obediently looked at the referee and catcher, bent down and took off his hat,
"Please take care of me."
Just when the referee and catcher felt that Izawaki's appearance did not match the inside, they saw that when Izawaki turned his head to face the pitcher, he shouted,
"Yo Xi, look at me to make a big deal."
Izaoshiki, who had a hideous expression, scared the referee and catcher behind him, but Aodo was used to such Izagi and responded loudly.
"Ah, Izoshiki."
"Izaki, let's get a shot."
"Senior Ah Chun, come on!"
"Silky dog senior, let's have a shot."
"Roar! The silky dog of the blue road. ”
After Rong Chun's support was mixed in the middle, the cheering sound of Iza turned in a strange direction, and the angry Izaki was green and vigorous, and he swung his stick hard,
"Who's the Silky Dog?"
"Bang!"
"Good shot!"
Izaki slowly broke out in a cold sweat, quickly retracted his previous action, and looked at the pitcher with a serious expression.
"It can't be like this, be serious, Silky Dog Senpai."
'Back to the rest area, I want you to look good, Sawamura!' ’
With anger and 'shyness', Izaki hit the baseball far into the right field, and when the baseball hit the ground, Kuramochi easily returned to base, and Izakishi also ran directly to second base.
Izawaki stood on the second base and roared, and the Seido High School Concert Club and cheerleaders, who had galloped first, replaced cheers with performances, and the audience burst into flames.
"It's amazing, I just got the score at the beginning."
"That hitter is called Izawaki, that kind of bad ball can be played into a long hit in the right field, so accurate hitting ability."
"Ahh It was so intense from the start, and this game should be very interesting. ”
Failed to solve the three bats.,Instead, Izuo put on the second base of the famous high school.,The atmosphere at this time is by no means good.,Although I understand that Qingdao's striking ability is very strong.,But I didn't expect this attack mode to be too stormy.,Even if there's a slight chance.,It's going to be overwhelming.。
Takaoka glanced at the knots in the strike zone, and he could clearly expose the data of this beater, and it was the best choice to escort him.
But now it's only the first inning, if you send it, it will be a big blow to the team, and it may also hurt the pitcher's heart.
Obviously, this idea won the heart of the pitcher Takashi, and the uncomfortable feeling of scoring was also suppressed, and all his mind was on solving the hitter.
In the face of Yucheng, Takaoka's first match ball was a slippery ball, Yucheng failed to play well, and hit out of bounds, and then Takano threw the second ball, which was a two-seam straight ball with the opposite trajectory of the slider, which was still out of bounds, and Takano who used two balls to chase Yucheng is now a little emotional.
Then, under all the scrutiny, Takano's third ball was out of his hands, and whether it was height, speed or change, it could be called an impeccable goal.
"Phew!"
"Hardcore!"
The catcher pulled his hat up and shouted at the guards, his eyes full of disbelief, why could he react, is Qingdao's four sticks so strong?
As a man who has already made Rong Chun's pitching habits, it is still expected that this level of contrast will be expected, if the ball speed is not much faster than Rong Chun's, probably the first ball can be hit.
The first mat was hit by a well-timed hit from the midfield, and Izzoshiki returned to home plate with ease.
Now the situation on the field is that there is someone on second base, and as soon as the game is out, the hitter is a five-stick Zengzi, and the top three in the score--have already shared some information about the pitcher, so Zengzi stood at the front end of the strike zone as soon as he came on the court, holding a short bat.
With a very oppressive figure and a calm and honest face, the players in Mingdu dare not underestimate this heavyweight fighter.
It has to be said that the opening streak of hits had some impact on Nato's aces, even though he already had two years of Koshien experience.
Even if the next pitching is not introduced, some people who know baseball can see that Takano is too careful.
However, even though Takano tried his best to shoot the corners and corners, it was not easy to hit, but Masuko still relied on the strength of the bar to go out, and the baseball flew high and far, and Takano looked behind him and saw the stalwart runner runner stop.
"Get out! Seido High School's Masuko Gobashi hit the first home run of this year's Koshien! ”
"Unexpectedly, the Qingdao players were able to score four points in the first game."
"It can be seen that Qingdao's line is very coherent. The next hitter is Miyuki, known as the savior of Qingdao, and the anti-theft rate is very high. ”
Yu Yuki and Masuko, who came back from the field, slapped their hands and said helplessly,
"Masuko's senior's performance is too good, what should I do, now there is no one on the base, and the senior's recent strike rate is getting higher and higher."
"Woo Ka~~~"
"Miyuki Kazuya, fight as hard as you can, although we don't expect much from you at all!"
"Kula, Sawamura, I'm also a senior, what about honorifics!"
"Come on, the referees are glaring at you."
Kuramochi behind him also joked, it was not time for the referee to remind him at all, but Miyuki still hurriedly ran up and prepared to strike, although no one else had much expectations, but for Miyuki, he felt that his thoughts were still very serious and upright.
Then the serious and upright Yu Xing risked a three-base straight ball back, looking at the thief's appearance, everyone has nothing to say, normal operation.
Immediately after that, the next stick is the reliable man Baizhou, who has already put on a winning posture on the first base bag before everyone can react.
"Ah, when did the seniors of Hakushu get on the base."
"When you laughed at Miyuki for being a blind cannon...... Sawamura, you better pay attention to me a little bit. ”
The eighth baton was Tanba's senior, who luckily hit Takano's slider, and the ball was also very good, and when he was happily running to first base, the shortstop's American guard intercepted the ball, passed it to the second baseman, and assassinated the runner Hakushu.
Then the first game ended when Mingdu High School lost four points. Takano gratefully touched the shortstop and second baseman's gloves, thanks to which they were unable to continue to lose points.
The loss of points in the first game made Mingdu High School very concerned, and in the next blow, it can be said that it was very desperate, as if it was hung with a furious buff, and one by one it swung the stick.
The guard supported Takano, who lost points, and although there were still hits in the next two innings, he didn't drop points again. Finally, in the first half of the fourth game, Mingdu High School recovered two points.
Miyuki looked at Tanba, who was beaten by Sanlian, and seriously typed the next code, Tanba wiped his sweat, saw the instructions given by Miyuki, and smiled,
"It's been a lot milder lately, but it's still the same luck in my bones." ’
